Reason for this meme is that some ubisoft titles are shipped with a broken version of ubisoft connect launcher. Installing these games is only possible by running the installer for the launcher again via protontricks.

Forced launchers like uplay and origin are the issue

These are usually first-party though (made by the same company that makes the game), not third-party.

in my mind tho steam is the first party launcher cause that's the launcher I bought the game from. If your game comes shipped with another one that's gonna run when I try to play just don't bother putting it on steam. I bought Far cry 3 and refunded it just because of uplay being jank. I still played the game, just pirated it
